2. Bernie campaign slams Warren as candidate of the elite

Of course, it is classic BS revisionism to blame Warren for speaking out about his comments that a woman can't win the Presidency. Even before then, Bernie's campaign was trying to smear Warren. Bernie wins by tearing down his allies. Even before then, Bernie's campaign targeted Beto O'Rourke who had been inspired by Bernie previously.

DES MOINES, Iowa — The nonaggression pact between Bernie Sanders and Elizabeth Warren is seriously fraying.

Sanders’ campaign has begun stealthily attacking Warren as a candidate of the upper crust who could not expand the Democratic base in a general election, according to talking points his campaign is using to sway voters and obtained by POLITICO.

The script instructs Sanders volunteers to tell voters leaning toward the Massachusetts senator that the “people who support her are highly-educated, more affluent people who are going to show up and vote Democratic no matter what” and that “she's bringing no new bases into the Democratic Party.”


“I like Elizabeth Warren. (ptional)” the script begins. “In fact, she’s my second choice. But here’s my concern about her.” It then pivots to the criticisms of Warren.
If I were to vote in a presidential
primary today, I would vote for:
Joe Biden
